On December 2 (Eastern Standard Time), the International Data Corporation (IDC) unveiled its most recent "Global Quarterly Mobile Phone Tracker" report. According to the report, Apple's mobile phone shipments in the fourth quarter of this year surpassed projections. Nevertheless, owing to a scarcity of memory components and adjustments in product cycles, it is anticipated that global smartphone shipments will experience a 0.9% decrease in 2026. Despite this, the average selling price of smartphones is projected to climb to $465 next year, with the market value forecast to hit an all-time high of $579 billion.
